Smoking – Smoking is not allowed inside the villa
Maintenance – Although every effort is made to maintain Villa Carolina in the best condition, wear and tear is unavoidable. Please notify the caretaker as soon as possible if a problem exists. Every effort will be made to rectify any issues in a timely manner. We strive to make your holiday hassle free. However, no refund or rate adjustment will be given for unforeseen circumstances.
Service Interruptions – We cannot promise that there will be no interruption for services we have no control over. These include, but are not limited to: electrical service, internet, and satellite television. We will make every effort to escalate any interrupted service issues so they can be restored as quickly as possible.

Guest Responsibilities Treat the property like you would your own, with respect. No unregistered guests are allowed to stay in the Villa. Guests are responsible for the property, its contents and themselves and all other guests during occupancy. Further detailed explanations will be in the rental agreement you will receive after the confirmation of your reservation. Guests are advised that personal items lost or stolen are not the responsibility of the Owner or Agent. There are safes in each bedroom in the villa, and guests will be given a set of keys to lock the villa. Guests will therefore be solely responsible for locking of the home and the safekeeping of their personal valuables during their visit. Agent and Owner assume no responsibility for insuring that the residence is locked and secured during the period of occupation by Guests. In addition, Agent and Owner shall be held harmless from all claims or causes of actions arising from the rental and occupation of the residence by Guest.
